Changing Views

[micheus]

There is a way to get many views stored in order to revisit them later: Windows-> Manage Saved Views

It doesn't allow us to set a hotkey, but as it's a docker window we just need to click on the name of the saved view - I use it frequently. Sometimes I create my own "Reset".

In this case you can name the view just like you suggested: "normal 3d view".

The are other interesting view command very useful while modelling:
a) View->Highlight Aim [A] - it doesn't require we to select an element (vertex/edge/face/object) - if the Smart Highlight is enabled when you move the mouse over an element it becomes temporarily selected you just hit [A];
b) View->Align to Selection - this one requires a selection and it will put the camera aligned to the selection normal.

You can assign a hotkey to it or any other command that becomes part of your regular workflow.
